The January birthday girls pitching in to bake Daddy a cake. Somehow we believe their motivations are for licking utensils.
january 26th - crafty
Lucy absolutely loves doing crafts at school, as evidenced by her clothes being a different color when she comes home. She even takes things from around the house into school for her creations.
january 24th - six year throwback
It was six years ago that we were hunkered down at Beeps and Grandpa’s house for a serious blizzard. Must have been a couple feet of snow that fell…Daddy had to leave the next day for London on a work trip that somehow still happened.
Same snow suit, but that is a little GemGem being carried by Daddy. Lucy was not quite with us!!
january 22nd - snowy BFFs
Great time skiing in pretty good conditions. The snow was decent and the sun was shining. Hard to ask for anything more from Pennsylvania skiing. Gemma was soooo happy to have Emma up to ski.
january 21st - back at it
We are back up at the lake for another ski weekend. This time with Gemma and Lucy’s friends, Emma and Caroline.
january 19th - take me to your leader
Lucy had some fun with Q-tips this morning and she is now big and does not need help. Daddy is now a minister, as recognized by the Universal Life Church and the internet.
january 18th - this is eight
Our GemGem is eight years old and now has very strict expectations for her birthday. She requested shake shack for dinner and, instead of a cake, she wanted Beeps’ banana cream pie. We were able to comply with all requests and she had an amazing day.
january 17th - hiking out
Daddy and Uncle Todd had to transport all the stuff up to the top of the hill through 10 inches of snow…after digging out the cars that were plowed in by the POA. Very little gratitude for the work. Eventually we made it out after the kids had a chance to play in the snow. Just home in time for Mommy to throw together birthday number 2!
january 16th - balmy
A little warmer today so we were able to get a couple more people out to the slopes. Mommy stayed behind with the littles and kept them occupied. Lots of crafts today and indoor activities, as the snow rolled in and came down hard. Daddy and Uncle Todd had to move the cars up to the top to ensure we would be able to get out tomorrow. Crazy snow!
january 15th - skeleton crew
Feels like -21. Holy Christ. Did not stop the Moms from getting out for their walk, which conveniently came right when it was time to serve seven kids a meal. It was not worth taking all the kids out to the slopes, but Alex and Lila were all in. Daddy and Uncle Todd took the two of them over for a short day to get Lila fully immersed. We grabbed a quick bite and beers before heading back in time to watch the Eagles lose their first found playoff game. Bummer but not unexpected. Gemma got some early birthday love:)
